Tourist Day in Iceland - Monring Waterfalls and Black Sands

As Jane had not visited Iceland before, we decided to do a tour of the highlights of the area accessible from Reykjavic. The morning was spent on the south coast .

I don't yet have the name of the first waterfall we visited on our journey to the south coast - it would have been good to explore this one further. This was followed during the morning with visits to Seljalandsfoss,Skogafoss, Solhelmajokull -blue glacier and Solhelmasander (black beach). It has been the warmest winter since records began in Iceland so there was very little snow or ice around once we reached the coastal road.
